Answer:

an = 12 -7(n-1)

an = 19-7n

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is

an = a1 +d(n-1) where a1 is the first term and d is the common difference

a1 =12

We find d by taking the second term and subtracting the first term

d = 5-12

d = -7

an = 12 -7(n-1)

We can simplify this

an = 12 -7n+7

an = 19-7n

Answer:

SA = 384 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming we're finding surface area:

SA of top of large cube: 8(8) - 4(4) = 48 in²

SA of sides of large cube: 4(8)(8) = 256 in²

SA of exposed faces of small cube: 5(4)(4) = 80 in²

Total = 48 + 256 + 80 = 384 = ∑SA
